Tuesdays in the Chapel

Tuesdays in the Chapel is Scarritt Bennett Center’s weekly 35-minute worship service. Hosted by the Soul Work program, this service is offered each Tuesday at 12:30pm in our historic Wightman Chapel (campus map). Each chapel service includes preaching, scripture, prayer, music and features guest preachers from a variety of backgrounds and faiths.

Join us for a midweek Sabbath break that provides peaceful space for renewal and spiritual refreshment.

Tuesdays in the Chapel welcomes in-person worshipers in Wightman Chapel and streams live online. Recordings of previous services, as well as feeds to upcoming livestreams, can be found on our Facebook page and YouTube channel.

About Bishop William T. McAlilly:

William T. (Bill) McAlilly is the bishop of the Tennessee-Western Kentucky Conference (previously the Nashville Episcopal Area of the United Methodist Church, including the Tennessee & Memphis Conferences).

Compassion for the least and last has been at the heart of his emphasis on missions throughout his ministry—locally in the communities in which he has served and globally in Mexico, Nicaragua, and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Under McAlilly’s leadership, the Nashville Episcopal Area built the Mama Lynn Center in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.  Named after Lynn McAlilly, the Mama Lynn Center is a sanctuary for women to receive care and find restoration. It provides space for women to get medical attention, counseling, and faith-centered nurture to address problems related to what they have experienced and helps them recover self-respect, dignity, and a sense of joy.

Bishop McAlilly has a pastor’s heart with a vision for the reign of God.
